The Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Wildflowers: Eastern Region

National Audubon Society Field Guides

by William A. Niering, Nancy Olmstead

Nothing is as colorful as a field of wildflowers in full-bloom so what could be more appropriate than a magnificent field guide with beautiful full-color photographs? More than 1,000 species are covered in full detail, with notes on more than 400 others. The 700 identification photographs show wildflowers-including grasses and sedges, and many flowering vines and shrubs-in their natural habitats.

the Eastern Edition generally covers states east of the Rocky Mountains, while the Western Edition covers the Rocky Mountain range and all the states to the west of it.

We had this book growing up and I loved flipping through it and looking at all the pictures of flowers.

Very easy to use, but too heavy to conveniently take with you when hiking. I just leave it at home and take a picture of anything I have a question about and look it up from there.
